A new study published in Psychophysiology used electroencephalography (EEG) and advanced modeling to track brain dynamics during metaphor generation, finding that specific sequences of brain states are associated with more creative metaphors. Early on, higher alpha-band synchronization predicted novelty, while later, alpha-band desynchronization became more prominent.
This practical guide uses SERP comparisons and Python to group keywords by intent, faster and more intuitively.
An analysis of the quality of AI-generated summaries of a technical paper, comparing outputs from Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Perplexity, and NotebookLM. The author finds Gemini to be the best, highlighting the importance of context in prompting and the potential usefulness of AI summaries as 'extended abstracts'.
Researchers simulated early Earth conditions with hydrothermal vents and found that archaea thrived, suggesting life may have originated in similar 'chemical gardens' rich in hydrogen and iron.
>"I cover briefly what SVD is, and why it is central to making attention work really well."
PII Guard is an LLM-powered tool that detects and manages Personally Identifiable Information (PII) in logs — designed to support data privacy and GDPR compliance. It uses the gemma:3b model running locally via Ollama.
A Google engineer's testimony shows how page quality is scored and confirms the existence of a popularity signal that uses Chrome data.
This course provides an introduction to the Model Context Protocol (MCP), covering its theory, design, and practical application. It includes foundational units, hands-on exercises, use case assignments, and collaboration opportunities. The course aims to equip students with the knowledge and skills to build AI applications leveraging external data and tools using MCP standards.
The article details a study suggesting that rapid shifts in gene regulation, rather than changes in protein-coding genes, likely drove the evolution of human intelligence. Researchers identified two key regulatory "saltations" – sudden changes – unique to humans that impact areas like memory, learning, social behavior, and emotional depth.
Daniel M. Russell's talk will review the successes and failures of past UX research approaches, drawing on decades of experience at the intersection of human experience and intelligent systems, to explore how AI will shape future knowledge practices.
